The three decided to participate in a walkathon to raise additional money for the shelter. Sarah walked 5 miles less than twice the number of miles that Semir walked. They each collected $18 in pledges for every mile they walked.

How many miles did Sarah walk?

I get w = 15. So Semir walked 15 miles and Sarah walked (2(15) - 5) miles, or 25 miles.
